Help/Advice needed
I'm 28.4 weeks pregnant with my first baby. I recently got laid off so I could get unemployment because my employer wanted to make sure I had some money coming in after the baby comes. Very nice people to work for, and I'm grateful, but I didn't expect to be ending work 3 months before my baby is born. This made me feel scared because I'm not getting as much money as if I would if I worked until a couple weeks, or whenever I NEED to be done, before he's ready to be born. Even though work was getting to be a little much some days, I still liked going because i like my job and the people I work with, and honestly it's something to do.
On top of that my boyfriend just started working again after not working for 4 months because of an injury at his last job and because he was just too lazy to get back to work.!It makes me a bit nervous that he has to be the one to carry the weight for the next 6 or so months. Since I've met him he's already gone through a few jobs. Thankfully he likes this one and has good benefits so hopefully this one sticks.
The reason I'm writing is because I don't know what to do with myself when I'm home. I know I need to rest and take care of myself but I also feel like I need to get stuff done and when I'm alone I feel completely unmotivated. I don't know if I'm depressed or what but it's like I get so overwhelmed with what needs to be done that I do nothing.
Does anyone have any suggestions of things I can do to fill my time? Like hobbies to take on or things that help me when I'm feeling down? I feel like if I had something to look forward to like a cool hobbie and took a little time each morning to do it that I would have more motivation to do the things I don't want to do.
